The Stevens 301 Turkey is not just a shotgun; it's a formidable tool for the serious turkey hunter. This single-shot, break-action firearm brings simplicity and reliability to the forefront, making it an ideal choice for those who value straightforward functionality over complexity.
At its core, the Stevens 301 features a robust 26-inch barrel specifically optimized for Federal Premium HEAVYWEIGHT TSS payloads. These loads have redefined what the .410 caliber can achieve in terms of power and patterning, turning this lightweight gauge into a genuine contender against elusive gobblers. With minimal recoil and powerful delivery, hunters can now enjoy enhanced performance without sacrificing comfort or control.
This model comes equipped with synthetic furniture that includes swivel studs on both stock and fore-end—a thoughtful addition for those seeking versatility in field carry options. Available in Mossy Oak Bottomland or Obsession camouflage patterns, it blends seamlessly into diverse environments while maintaining durability under demanding conditions.
The Stevens 301 also incorporates practical enhancements such as a removable one-piece rail system designed to accommodate optics easily—whether you prefer traditional scopes or cutting-edge red dot sights. Its bead sight is TruGlo compatible, providing further customization potential to suit individual preferences.
A carbon steel receiver ensures resilience while maintaining an overall weight of merely six pounds—light enough for swift handling yet sturdy enough to withstand rigorous use. An extra-full choke patterned after Winchester specifications enhances shot precision even further when targeting distant quarry.
If you are searching for an ambidextrous shotgun designed explicitly around modern ammunition capabilities like HEAVYWEIGHT TSS loads—and wish never again miss out due solely because your equipment failed—the Stevens Model M301 could be precisely what needs adding next time heading out hunting season arrives!
